The Myth of the “Emerging” Black Artist: Ageism and Access in the Art World

The article, written by Chenoa Baker, critiques the art world's labeling system that categorizes artists as emerging, mid-career, or established. It argues that these labels are particularly harmful to Black artists, who are often kept in the "emerging" category for years despite significant achievements, collections, and decades of practice. The piece highlights the cases of Cheryl Miller, a self-taught analog photographer whose work is held by major institutions yet who had to "re-emerge" after relocating, and Ifé Franklin, a queer Black artist whose career was sidelined by systemic erasure and who is now being honored as an "elder" artist. The article connects these labels to ageism, lack of access to elite schools and galleries, and the undervaluing of self-taught artists and those working outside traditional art centers.

‘I paint extreme emotions’: Rachel Jones on her riotously colourful paintings – and her obsession with mouths

Rachel Jones, a 34-year-old British artist, is preparing for a major retrospective at Dulwich Picture Gallery, her first institutional solo show in the UK and the museum's first solo exhibition of a contemporary artist in its main space. After graduating from the Royal Academy Schools in 2019, Jones was quickly represented by Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, had work acquired by the Tate, and exhibited at Chisenhale Gallery, the Hayward Gallery, and the Hepworth Wakefield. She has since left gallery representation, expanded into sound and performance, and created a short opera titled 'Hey Maudie' (2023), now being developed into a full-length opera. Her upcoming show at Dulwich, 'Gated Canyons', will pair her large-scale abstract paintings with works from the museum's collection, and she also has a site-specific commission at the Courtauld Gallery opening in September.
